Wrong Fuel in Car West Ardsley - Petrol in Diesel Car West Ardsley

Just had a good night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a gloomy Tuesday and we were en route to assist an older woman who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel West Ardsley. I had been told she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and pulled up along a rural lane on route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got her location plugged into the Satnav and arrived in less than an hour or so. I reached the stricken lady and removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was working she explained, "Now I'm becoming fairly forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle needing diesel since I had only purchased it a week back when my other car, which I'd owned for more than thirty years, inevitably died on me". I completed the job and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. What a pleasant lady!

Having said so, if you ever end up in a strange car or a car where the autopilot is operating, you should just remain calm. Having this information, knowing symptoms of incorrect fuel in your car or other problems should be easy. And the situation whether you are concentrating or not, will not matter either.

Contamination of fuel by water also results in the above symptoms.

Presence of water in fuel is yet another thing which can make your car behave in the way explained above. Hence you also need to consider it. You should know that any fuel which is contaminated with water, regardless of whether your car consumes diesel or petrol , will always fail the engine leading to an untimely stop.

The running of the engine is usually improved using a diesel system additive called AdBlue. However, it should just be used by professionals who understand where and how to use it. Or else, it would cause troubles and problems to your vehicle. The incorrect usage can, however, be avoided through the use of its own AdBlue tank and filler cap. When someone who is inexperienced in administering AdBlue correctly, it is common that they miss the mark.

Just like when a car has incorrect fuel, AdBlue also causes the vehicle not to move smoothly and eventually lead to the car to stop. Great news is we are always willing to help. Our mobile technicians are used to coping with a great deal of vehicular issues, not just water contamination or having the incorrect fuel in the vehicle but this kind of issue too.


When dealing with flammable materials, you would need not only the right expertise but also the right tools. Otherwise, the fuel may ignite and what initially was easy to contain may turn into a disaster. It is therefore recommended you involve a professional whenever you are coping with fuel related problems, although carrying it out by yourself or involving a friend may be cheaper.

We are professionals in handling whatever vehicle issues you have. Our technicians are well distributed around the country and on call 24/7, ready to sort out a wide range of problems efficiently, at a fair and affordable price.

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter

If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
